Can my sons in-laws witness my will?

Given her current health situation, isn't there arguably a greater need for a properly witnessed, and professionally drafted will?rolysatch said:Thanks for all the advice everyone, much appreciated. To be honest she's undergoing chemotherapy and lost her hair so doesn't really want to see anyone at the moment so i was thinking of getting my inlaws to witness it to save any hassle. We were going to use the "Which" online will which apparently is checked over by a solicitor or will writer, so semi DIY? I did a DIY will for my dad and I was executor which all went smoothly but obviously everything was left to my mum so very straight forward. This would be straight forward too with everything split 3 ways between her children. i wouldn't envisage any problems, but i can sort truely independent witnesses as everyone seems to feel the same way in that respect.0
